Website Name: The Moral Liberal

Description:
Promoting the Judeo-Christian ethic, limited government, and That Heavenly Banner: The U.S. Constitution.
What is Moral Liberalism? Think Classical Liberalism, the political philosophy of the American Founding generation.
Think Thomas Jefferson’s, “A nation that expects to be ignorant and free expects what never was and never will be,” – noting Jefferson’s definition of “educated” included the all important development and exercise of “the moral sense.”
Think John Adams, “We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge or gallantry would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution is designed only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for any other.”
Think the self-governing limited government the God of Heaven inspired under our Constitution, with its checks and balances, its division and limitation of powers (including federalism with few powers delegated to Washington and all the rest retained by the states and the people), its inalienable rights – especially religious freedom and the other first amendment rights, and its free enterprise; all of this upheld by an educated, moral, and vigilant electorate.
